My Skillshare: www.skillshare.com/en/r/profi...
What is Xanthan Gum? What does it do to our food? How can I use Xanthan Gum in my recipes? All these questions and many more are answered in this video.
I am using various molecular cuisine ingredients in my video recipes, and I thought it would be useful to breakdown some of them. So, you guys would better understand them, their properties and applications in cooking.
We start with Xanthan Gum, as the most widely accessible molecular gastronomy ingredient and also one of the most useful ones. You can buy Xanthan Gum in most supermarkets. It will be in the baking or organic sections (it is widely used for gluten-free baking).
You can also order it on Amazon: amzn.to/31EJywa
If you like this video and want me to break down more molecular cuisine ingredients, let me know in the comments below. Thanks!
Little written handout with other properties and cooking applications of Xanthan Gum will be available in my KZread Members area (Community tab).

Yes, please Chef! This was fascinating and I would love to learn about some of the other magical ingredients you use. (I actually have some xanthan gum and had only used it to thicken my fermented hot sauces, but now I’ll certainly be using it for *much* more!)
I use Xanthan Gum to make cheesecake or marshmallow fluff. 250g of cottage cheese, 150ml milk, 50ml hot water, 2 tbsp gelatine, 3/4 tbsp Xanthan Gum, sugar/sweetener, anything that will give some taste (fruits / food flavor / cocoa).

@@harithzaini2036 I just melt gelatine in water, mix cheese with milk usually using hand mixer, but blender should do the job too. When cheese and milk are combined (1 minute) I add slowly water with gelatine, and all other ingredients, at the end I add Xanthan Gum. To get more volume and better fluff it needs to be mixed for 8-12 minutes on high speed. Then 1-2 hours in refrigerator and it's done.
To insure thorough combining, add the xanthun gum to the sugar first, stir, then add to the ice cream mixture.
Xanthan gum is also added to gluten free bread mixes so that the bread doesn’t crumble

But xanthan gum is made of GMO corn and soy which is not a good ingredient to consume if you’re allergic or health conscious.

Oil and water doesn't mix but making hot sauce at home, adding a small amount as a binder keeps them from separating and smoothes out the sauce and adds a bit of change to the viscosity.
Used it today to make fresh keto raspberry/rhubarb crumble. Used 2 tsp. Of Xantham gum instead of 4 tsp of corn starch . Result was perfect . Great video safe to use in all keto recipes
Chef, thank you for your amazing content. I've learned more about molecular gastronomy from you than from any other source, it's really educating and well edited.

Very cool. Nice video
Thank you for the brief summary of Xanthan Gum. A useful tip if you want to thicken something without having to create foam, you can dissolve xanthan gum in a oily substance and put it in the blender.
Xanthan Gum is one of my favourite ingredient, I used it a while on my old Hotel. 5 years passed now and I wanted to try it again, it's just amazing to use. I still try out a lot of different stuff, because I didn't used it for so long. But yeah, I also thinking about Soy Licitin, I also remembered it really well.
Amazing video as always!
Thanks so much for this video! I used xanthan gum to make natural lipglosses, but then had a lot leftover, so now am excited to try a few of these applications especially the ice cream! 🎉 yum!
tthankkkk youuu so much for these informativee videossss, in love with them

Note that many of these hydrocolloids, used individually,are thickeners when used in small quantities, though they may form a gel in larger quantities. But, some have a synergistic effect when combined. Some examples are xanthan gum & guar gum, glucomannan, locust bean gum or carrageenan; locust bean gum and carrageenan or glucomannan; agar & pectin; etc. What is fascinating is that, the characteristics of the gum that forrms in the combination may be different than what forms with individual gums. Particularly, the gum may be of a stretchy sort, rather than one that fractures when stretched. Xanthan gum & guar gum in 59/50 proportions, or carrageenan & locust bean gun in 10 to 1 proportions are particular proportions. These gels still melt when heated (compared to non-thermally reversible glucomannan & alkali)...which means that they can replace tapioca starch in "vegan cheese" recipes, when one wants a low carbohydrate product. You have done videos on these individual products. Can you expand on what I wrote, above, and do a video on combining these hydrocolloids?....
Thank you 😊 I am new using Xanthan gum
Excellent!!!
Thank you. This really helped with the full learning. What it is, why it works, as well as the examples and demonstrating. It can be hard to see how it works and how much to add for the uses.
Great video! Another widely used property of xanthan gum is its ability to work as a binding agent. A friend of mine has a gluten intolerance, and I used xanthan gum to add structure to oat flour lasagna sheets. It worked spectacularly well. I knew about the #1 and #2 properties, but the prevention of large ice crystals is a new one to me. I'll definitely try it out in the future.

Hello, 🎉 😊 do you happen to know, if you can use it in homemade food dishes and products that you want to. (can or freeze)? Is it safe to do and not spoil the food products? 😮 😊 🎉 Thank you very much.
Dont know if I already told you. But I´m currently experimenting with xantangum and butter. I´m trying to make a burger patty that blows your mind. I heat butter in the microwave until I almost start to brown it then I take a little bit of salt water and xantangum and make it thicker. Then i incorporate it with ground chuck that I mixed in about 1% salt and 2% gelatin powder. and let it set in the fridge over night. The problem is that the xantangum inhibits the burger meat from binding so I haven't found a stable amount yet. I think perhaps less is more. Never the less when you fry the meat in a pan and taste it, its other worldly. The brown butter flavor does not melt out in the pan and the gelatin retains the moister although the meat is tanned with malliard all over like a perfect sunny vacation. If you read this and have time. try it for yourself. :)

One of the best food science accounts. Thank you!! Quick question, do you think its very similar to gum arabic?
I try to give the Chantilly cream a foam consistency (more air like a chocolat mousse) can you recommend an ingredient to use please ?
Could you use xanthan gum for making both gelato and sorbet? And is it the same thing with their so-called "stabilizer"?
Could you also use corn starch for all those uses with the same effectiveness?
Thank you. so informative i enjoy watching your video and i subcribe your channel .
